Unique experience
I wish I could find more games like this. It perfectly replicates and lampshades early internet culture while telling a compelling story. Gameplay/riddle-solving was unique, fun and easy enough to never stand in the way of the story's flow.

An incredible experience
This is a deeply affecting game, a real work of art. It's been slept on (pun intended) for whatever reason, but I'm sure it will someday receive the accolades and recognition it deserves. The amount of world building that went into the game is amazing. It really feels like accessing an alternate reality, with its own people and subcultures. At its core, it's a point and click adventure game. You'll be solving puzzles using clues that you glean from viewing different web pages, or emails, or personal chats, etc. The puzzles are logical and they aren't too difficult until the last few, but fortunately there's a built-in hint guide to help you if you need it. Honestly though, "beating" the game isn't really the point. You can miss 75% of the content of the game if you're just following the plot and trying to advance. Your time in game is best spent just browsing the web, downloading songs or virtual pets, learning about the different genres of music that are prevalent in the game world, getting to know the citizens of hypnospace through their web pages... I can't imagine anyone playing this game and not being changed by it somehow, even if it's just a change in their personal perception of what a game can be and what a game can do. I give it the highest recommendation possible.

Fun Retro-Aesthetic Adventure / Puzzler
I love adventure games. I love cyberpunk. I love retro-computer aesthetics. This is a combination of all three, and it was very enjoyable. I had a pretty tough time on a couple "password" puzzles, but other than that, all puzzles were reasonably challenging and fun. The game presents a faux 90s computer and internet browsing experience as an investigator of internet crimes. These escalate from copyright infringements (which I honestly felt guilty for enforcing) to, for the sake of avoiding spoilers, worse. While the genre itself might be considered retro at this point (point and click adventures), I loved them back in the day, and I still love them now. I'm really looking forward to the sequel, Dreamsettler.

Web 1.0, and everything that follows
In an alternate-reality 1999, you play as a volunteer moderator / manual content ID'er responsible for scouring the internet for malicious software, harassment, and mostly copyright violations. I have only dim memories of Web 1.0, but can confirm that it was very much a wild wild west, with huge amounts of optimism, experimentation, and accidental/intentional malware. This game tries to capture that era, along with the roots of more contemporary issues on the internet. On my second playthough now, finding the secret connections between certain pages and the latter part of the story. On another note, the music is amazing and they wrote numerous mixtapes and albums for this game, so there's always something to listen to.

90s Internet Detective Game
In a parallel universe where we got neuro-interfacing headbands many decades earlier than intended that beam a bootleg Windows 98 OS, and a bizarro late 90s internetscape into your head when sleeping, you as a volunteered internet admin cop must casually surf the incredibly 90s web, while stopping any net crimes you come across. Download wacky images, funky music, themes and wallpapers, and earn/spend hypnocoin earned by banhammering internet atrocities, while also being accompanied by a floating cybernetic skull who looks like he's about to laser someones crotch off and ask questions never. Get scammed, encounter wacky viruses, then cure them with bootleg ClamWin. Find secret webpages, pir- confiscate unauthorized music and software downloads from secret bootleg Dropbox pages, and copyright claim the hell out of a cartoon fish while harassing a middle aged woman about it. Adopt a virtual pet who will never stop shitting on your desktop, then play a cheesey horror point and click game where every googly eyed object wants you dead. Accuse bootleg Pokemon/Neopets of being satanic, and then tell your boss that he looks like 90s Internet Todd Howard. And most importantly of all, remember to ban Zane, so he can stop wasting time on bootleg Myspace, and eventually make his zany boom shoot game.
